I would like to see the hands bar expanded to be wider, by maybe 6 or 8 boxes. There are mage spells i havent bothered with, because there just isnt enough room on one bar for them atm. Bit of a pain to have to change from bar2 to bar3 and back again in the middle of a battle.

I find that although it is not difficult to set up new stanzas, usually when i want to do this i am busy in a team. Not your fault, but it does seem a pain to set these stanzas up because i customize them and spend time to do that takes away from my play time.
However, i must admit that I am getting used to the present system and it is adaquate for the time being. the change would just be a convience.

oh please no i only have 10 fingers and counting further would be a complication. LOL

These improvements are going to the ATS server for testing, Your devs are CLEARLY listening. If you ask for a feature that is possible, in the most clear and respectful manner possible, they WILL provide.

(clarification: They are testing the ability to browse hands bar by using mouse wheel. I will test and see if moving something from ONE bar to another is possible using the scroll and the drop and drag, but I don't see why it would not be possible.)

The only thing I hate is when new skills get an automatic spot in my hands bar. It's messy and requires me to delete them. Does ANYONE use default stanzas? I sure as heck dont. Everything gets a tweak, and just because I got a new stanza doesn't mean it's going to go in the handsbar that it landed in. Especially upgrades....

I did when i just started out ;P I think it is good for the new players, but maybe after lvl 20 in a skill it stops? Give the person some time to adjust to the game i guess. Or maybe make it an option they can change.

Imagine being on the ATS, due to PVP testing you start new characters out at level 150, when you buy 150 LEVELS worth of FOUR skill classes, the mess on your hands bars takes longer to clean up than it takes to buy all the skills.

Yes I would like to have the hands bars/Stanza thing part of the "help" menu and not auto dumped into the bar.

Ok, I'm gonna give away one of my specials secrets. HEre is why you would want to copy a complete hands bar to another one. There are about 6 or 8 actions on my hands bar, maybe more that are in the same exact place on every single hands bar I have. If for some reason I need to create a new hands bar, I don't want to have to re-create all them to match ones that I have already.

Hope that helps you understand.

For me the biggies are self heal focus, self heal HP and my mix of the two, ID(whatever level I have of it), Heal other (whatever level I have of it) and a few others. But those go on EVERY hands bar (might not need to when the scroll with mouse wheel goes live! talk about a GOOD idea, that dev needs some kind of reward...at least the fancy espresso machine and a year supply of his/her favorite java and some biscotti)

why not have an options thing for the hands bar. You right click on the bar and click on 'Options...' Here you will have the ability to FIX certain squares using a checkbox. This would be fixed on all bars. You could have 1,3, 03, 06 fixed if you wanted, or whatever combo you chose If you dont want any fixed dont check any. This would fix that

not sure im too hot bout the scroll wheel. Will your mouse have to be over the hands bar? Personally I like as much possible to be done w/ the keyboard. I use the mouse to move, select critters or whatever and whatever is hard/not possible to do w/ the keyboard. But that's me ;P
